Firing the joint chiefs of staff would look bad for Kennedy because it would make it appear to the public that the administration is struggling/weak. Anytime there are scandals or issues in which the president does not get along with his colleagues, it is seen as a sign of weakness. During Kennedy's presidency, the last thing the United States government wanted was to appear weak. This is because the US was in constant competition with the Soviet Union for international power and influence.

Answer:

Because he did not want it to appear that the country's administration was in disagreement.

Explanation:

It is expected that all those who run the country will be in agreement with each other, if this is not shown to the public the government will show a weak appearance and the president can be seen as unprepared for the position. For this reason, Kennedy did not dismiss the heads of joint team, so that his popularity, as governor, did not stop due to rumors of disagreement between the members of the administration.

Constitutional powers of President: provide the specifics of a president's power. Find one example of a president exceeding his
enyata [817]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The Constitutional powers of the President of the United States are the following.

The US President is the leader of the United States. He is the chief diplomat, he is the commander-in-chief of the US armed forces(Airforce, Navy, Army, Coastal Guard). He has the power to veto bills and sign bills. He can enforce legislation passed by Congress. He leads the executive branch and the Cabinet and appoints Supreme Court Justices.

One example of a president exceeding his authority is when he wants to make treaties without the approval of the US Senate or wants to declare war without the approval of Congress. because according to the US Constitution, the power to declare war relies on Congress.

The Powers of the President that are shared with Congress are foreign relations, the appointment of Ambassadors, make treaties, and approving legislation. The President cannot declare war, for that to happen it needs the authorization of Congress, although the President can send troops to any country. Presidential powers are detailed in Article II of the US Constitution.
